Following hot on the heels of 'The Answer' and 'Hazy', Danish pop duo Darkness Falls present the third single and title track from their forthcoming album 'Dance And Cry' - a noir pop anthem tinged with melancholy, drama and deep longing.
Having distinguished themselves with 2011's Trentemøller-produced LP 'Alive in Us' and a string of accomplished live performances, it's proof positive that 2015 is set to be their biggest year yet.
Over a circling beat and glimmers of reverberating tremolo guitars that summon up the mystery it's a torch song tinged by loneliness and heartbreak but also by the empowerment that comes from living life in the city to the full. As its title suggests, it's not a question of either/or but rather both. We dance and cry. Lush, romantic and heart-stirring, it's a tune to languorously immerse yourself in.
An instrumental version on the flipside offers listeners the opportunity to enjoy the richly-detailed production in which the duo - aided and abetted by the talents of Adrian Aurelius (Raveonettes) and Lasse Martinussen (Rosemary) - blend an array of rock, pop and dance influences to create a singular and deeply involving sound.
